What a day!
Back in my hotel in Blackpool I have now been up for 21 hours. I have just played my part in helping to communicate details of a £7 billion retail merger. That and driving about 500 miles today have left me somewhat jaded.
My tiredeness disappeared after a couple of diet cokes in the Imperial. It was good to be able to have a few words with Iain Dale CoS to David Davis, and to see Davis meeting and greeting the party faithful. Davis has something you can't learn - leadership presence - and he certainly seemed master of his domain tonight.
The cabbie on the way in said he thought Sir Malcolm had made a good speech - although he did say he thought Davis would be good for the party as "he's an ordinary bloke".

Sir Malolm's speech was good. It seemed better than it was though, because it was the only speech of the day not to tell we members how crap and nasty we apparently are. Thanks guys.
